Description

Returns the total onboard memory size, in samples, for acquiring data. The number of samples is based on the default device data width.

If you configure your device to use a different data width, the total memory size is actually the value returned by this attribute multiplied by the quotient of the default data width divided by the configured data width. For example, if you configure 1-byte data width for a 2-byte device, the total acquisition memory size is twice the number of samples that is returned by this attribute.

Units: samples
